The Blogging Blues

Maybe it started with the incessant humidity and hot weather that has grabbed hold of the Northeast Kingdom and refuses to let go or maybe it has something to do with the robins who abandoned Red Pine Mountain early this year forecasting in their own way a harsh winter ahead. Most definitely it was the reality once again that life is so tenuous and a gift to be cherished every day.
I’ve needed some time away from the computer to regroup and reevaluate. Now, my son and my daughter in law are arriving with my granddoggie tomorrow. I’ll take pictures, gather stories and return refreshed once again.
I totally get it…and have read about so many people feeling this way right now out in blogland. Maybe it's the changing of the seasons, and once we feel the crispness of fall, we'll feel reinspired again!
Have fun with your family!

I know how you feel. It's been horrible humid here, lots of canning and pickling to do and to top it all off, I got a 456 piece order to embroider before the 1st of Oct. and one machine is down and today the other machine started acting up. I haven't really felt to much like blogging!

I go through bloggy doldrums too. I finally got myself organized w/your wonderful Kiva gift and loaned it to an auto repairman in Nairobi. Thank you so much for this and this is bloggy inspiration as are you.
Best Wishes for a Fabulous visit w/your family.

I've been in this state too. Brain Melt Down from the incessant HEAT. I'm like BLAH…no inspiration…no insight…no intelligent thought. Serious Slump.
Enjoy the visit with your family!

I too know exactly how you feel. I am taking it very easy myself today.
I am only visiting a few of my special places.
Please take all the time you need and get all rested. We aren't going anywhere.
I hope you have a wonderful time visiting with your very special company and I can't wait to see your pictures!!
Happy weekend and happy break!!:-)))

I'm starting to get that panic feeling that I haven't accomplished all that I planned this summer. Then I'm in a fog and can't get started.

Enjoy your time away from the PC!
And your family!

I just want to blog about something fun but there are just so many serious things going on around us that need to be addressed! I, too, need time to regroup!
Enjoy your family! Am looking forward to reading your next post with pictures and stories!

It's the heat and humidity. Makes me less able to function too. Have a great visit with family. Can't wait to see the pictures.

Oh no,…the robins have left? I will have to be more observant here in the Adirondacks.

Enjoy your visit. I know when it's real hot sometimes I just sit and sweat at the computer, then finally give it up. Sometimes, blogging just has to wait.
Date: August 24, 2009
Oh, I do that too. There are times when I'm just empty and have nothing to say. I find I need to switch mediums at that point–knit, quilt, take photos, etc. and that seems to bring the stories and the words back.
Enjoy your visit and don't feel guilty about turning the computer off or not blogging. We'll all be here when you get back!
Oh, thanks for the Blog of the Week there on the side! What a nice surprise!!!

I didnt miss blogging as much as I thought I would while hanging out in the hayfield. Enjoy your break! And your visitors!

Take all the time you need. I know all the blogs about blogging say to post everyday and don't leave your "post," as it were, but frankly my dear, I don't have it in me not to take breaks. Sometimes, ya just gotta disappear. Go have fun!

Enjoy your break with your family.

Hi MW,
Regrouping is excellent! I did that last month (for almost an entire month and, came back invigorated).
So have fun with your family and rest a lot

Cheers
